I learned today that a friend our age, a father of 3, passed away after a battle with cancer. His name was David and he was a really good person. His goal was to baptize his son before he passed away, and he made it, which tells you the kind of man he was.
Here is a recent photo of Richard and me. I wish I had more photos of the two of us. Kiss your husbands an extra time today and remember not to take them for granted.
This was our Easter. The kids decorated eggs after church. We then invited the Dedmone family from across the street to our house for ham, potatoes, asparagus, pineapple, homemade rolls & apple crisp. The Dedmones stayed for a long while so we had a good visit.
I love working on Cub Scout stuff with Daniel. Daniel made brownies and mashed potatoes for our family tonight. Richard came home sick from work, so we fed him dinner in bed. Timothy kept him company.
This is my brother Joe and his wife Shannan at the temple last week. They have adopted three children in the past year and a half or so. Their youngest baby, Ammon was sealed to them last week. Shannan has been sick for a long time and is losing a lot of weight. Gall bladder surgery hasn’t helped. She’s hospitalized today. I want to run to them and help. I hope I can. For now, I pray and wait for answers like everyone else who loves her.
This is Timothy with his friend, Sophia. We were on a field trip and the teacher was showing them a pair of Great Horned Owls nesting in the trees. Apparently they thought making faces at each other was much more interesting.
I owe those big kids a cupcake, too.
